perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Michael Johnson <>]

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for your comments. 

We have an open ticket regarding plotting additional values here:
https://code.google.com/p/perfsonar-ps/issues/detail?id=963

The color scheme will likely be reconsidered in the perfSONAR 3.5 release 
(which is where most of our dev efforts are going right now).

I've opened a ticket on your request to be able to specify the data interval 
to use.

https://code.google.com/p/perfsonar-ps/issues/detail?id=1022

You are correct that at the moment, it's specified based on the time range 
you select.

Thanks,
Michael
